Monday workout, fun day with friends
Mondays are the only sure day in a week I have left for workout or for my fitness activities. But recently, 8 have added Saturdays but not as regular as on Mondays unless I am not in town.
I have some friends that once I announce in our group that I will be working out on Monday, they will immediately indicate interest that they will be joining me. And once I get that response, I am very sure that I will be out otherwise, I may just do it at home.
This past Monday, I was very sure that I will be in town and so on Sunday evening, I announced in our group that I will be working out, so they indicated interest to join me. And so, very early on Monday, precisely by 6am, I sent a reminder to the group and those awake quickly responded. I got ready, with my son since my husband and my daughter declined joining me.
I put a call across to one of my friends who lives close to me and he came out. We all went together to the local which is about 20 minutes walk away from my location. Upon getting there, I met some other friends already waiting for me .
They after exchanging pleasantries, I gave out our first program which is skipping rope. I told everyone to pick their skipping rope and get to the target of 200 skips each. Each one will do the counting on their own. We all did and we got to the target.
Then the next program was tricep dips. The target was 15 reps by 4 sets. Next was another Tommy program, we did it 50 reps by 4 sets. Then we moves to lounges, 30 on each leg by 4 sets too.
After that, we did some other programs like jumping jacks, squats, high knees, russian twists and so on. On the whole, we spent about 2 hours there. It was as if I had extra energy because I wasn't getting tired at all. My friends started pleading with me to stop.
The fact is that I so working out so much that once I begin, stopping becomes a problem. And I see that day as the only day I have for workout and as such, I tend to workout as though there is no other day. I truly had it to my full that Monday and my friends too really enjoyed it. To them, they wish we could create opportunities for other days but it's just not possible.
Keeping fit is a very wonderful thing to do. It helps one to be fit and smart. However, it's like I am becoming lazy these days because I am supposed to be working out at home any other days I won't be going out with my friends. I have a space at home where I can workout but I just don't usually have the willingness to.
I think I need to try harder because it helps a lot. I will really try.
We later took some pictures before left scene.
